Özet

Central venous catheterization is an invasive procedure used in total parenteral nutrition, venoirritating drug use, massive and rapid blood transfusion, hemodynamic monitorization, hemodialysis, and percutaneous pacemaker implantations. Various complications may occur during or after this percutaneous procedure at an incidence rate of 5%-19%. The internal jugular vein (IJV) is often used for hemodialysis catheterization procedures because it is associated with a lower risk of complication, although complications such as carotid arterial puncture, vessel erosions, thrombosis, and infections may occur. Horner's syndrome (HS) may also develop as a rare complication of IJV cannulation. Here we report a case of HS that developed due to IJV cannulation for plasmapheresis.
